Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream For whipping into stiff peaks
  • ½ cup powdered sugar For sweetening the cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract For flavoring
  • 1 pound fresh strawberries Sliced remove stems

Method
 

  1. Beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  2. Spread a thin layer of whipped cream on the bottom of a 9×9 pan to prevent graham crackers from shifting.
  3. Arrange a layer of graham crackers over the whipped cream.
  4. Spread ⅓ of the whipped cream over the crackers and smooth it evenly with a spatula.
  5. Top the whipped cream with ⅓ of the sliced strawberries, spreading them evenly across the surface.
  6. Repeat the layers, alternating between graham crackers, whipped cream, and strawberries, finishing with a final layer of strawberries arranged decoratively.
  7. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
